1. Does SQL7 go into single user mode while executing transaction log backups? And is it necessary to back up the client Var Repository? We do not user the global hit count client vars and I can not think of any other situation where we would need to retrieve clients var data. It also appears that the Hitcount and Last Visit variables are being written to the client variable database even though we have the disable check box checked in the administrator. 2. I have a really strange report from a client about some irregularities in an app we built for them. Essentially, there is a long client variable that contains a delimited string of items. This long delimited list is used throughout the app. This string is later stored in the DB. Each record in the DB has its own identifiably string of delimited items. When a user accesses a particular item, the DB record is read and that delimited list is set as the client Var. The previous client vars are all deleted. Now, when my user views the entire string it looks normal. But if she attempts to edit an item in the list, all of its properties change to an item in another list from a separate record in the DB. Its seems as through the previous client Var is still hanging around and sometimes being selected from the clientVar repository instead of what should be the currently active client Var. Has any one seen anything like this happen before? 3. When I view the ClientVariable Database, there are numerous entries where the data is only a single variable. Each user session should always have between 10-20 client variables initialized when they log in yet there are numerous entries which contain just this orphaned variable. Why would this Variable be written to the client Var repository as a single record where as other records contain the entire string of client variables as expected. Thank you for your help.
